Anyone out there have a HD50, 4 bay external SCSI
enclosure they are
willing to part with (trade/money/etc.)? I've noticed that I've accumulated
a small pile of old IDC50 1gig SCSI drives and I have decided to actually
use them instead of allow them to keep my computer room door propped open.
I've verified that they work, etc, but my little case cannot fit more than
2 drives (yes, a sucky mid-tower) and logically, an external would suit my
needs. Finding them on ebay is like looking to pay porshe prices for a
yugo. I last saw one (actually a 2 bay HD50) go for about $130 US, USED
without power supply! Is there anyone out there willing to help spare my
sanity for my SCSI obscession? Maybe it will give me room to play with my
2X SCSI CD-ROM drive and 250Meg Tape Drive...
When we needed to move the BBS, our hardware person just took out the guts of
an old Compaq 386 and added a length of SCSI cabling with a lot of connectors
inside.
Who said old PCs can't be useful?
We've also got a dedicated SCSI tower with six external slots connected to our
Amiga 3000. A lot of people think the tower is the computer, not the lunch box
below the monitor.
Now, IBM's old SCSI tower, there's a real Rolls Royce. It's really a PS/2
model 95 case, and when fitted with IBM drives, it looks really nice with the
sloped front plates. It's a shame IBM insisted on using their own kind of
front plates and SCSI connectors.
